The French Quarter, or Vieux Carré (Old Square) is what comes to mind when many people think of New Orleans. It is the most historic and best-preserved part of the city, full of beautiful architecture, numerous shops and restaurants, bars and clubs, museums and homes. Situated above the Mississippi River on some of the highest ground in the city, the French Quarter escaped destruction from two major fires in the18th century and Katrina. It has survived to inspire artists, spark love, and add a little magic to the world.

The French Quarter thrives because people live there as well as visit. The buildings boast a great mix of architectural styles, from Spanish to French, Creole to American. Walled courtyards, cast iron balconies, and colorful row houses are signatures of the French Quarter. Many New Orleans bed and breakfasts are located in the French Quarter, an easy walk to all it has to offer.

Home tours are offered throughout the year, providing access to some of the most magnificent buildings in the neighborhood, or you can simply enjoy walking along the streets. Look for the Gallier House, the Merieult House, and the Cornstalk Fence Hotel. Notice The Victorian, where Harriet Beecher Stowe penned Uncle Tom's Cabin, and the Faulkner House, where William Faulkner wrote Soldiers Pay. Everywhere you turn, you'll see architecture that is a feast for the eyes.

There are wonderful antique shops, rich in treasures, and museums that will educate and astonish you. Some of the best people watching can be found in the French Quarter of New Orleans, along with some of the greatest food in the south. And don't forget the music. New Orleans has given birth to some of the greatest musicians ever, while others come here to take part in the thriving music scene. There is music seven days a week; you can always find jazz piano, brass bands, and cajun, just to name a few.

Enjoy your stay at New Orleans bed and breakfasts, and have a great time exploring the Vieux Carré.

Why be "near" the French Quarter when you can be right there!?! Our guests walk out our front gate and have their choice of the French Quarter's myriad of sights, sounds and tastes OR the Faubourg Marigny, one of America's "hippest" neighborhood.
All French Quarter attractions are within a 15-minute walk of the B&B. No need for streetcars, taxis, or buses.

We are 5 blocks from the French Quarter (or 4, if you cut across the park :-)
You just walk back and forth. Or, if it's late you can take a taxi for $4-6.
It's safe to walk all during the day. In the evening, you walk in to the French Quarter, and maybe take a taxi home if you're out late. It's an 8 minute walk.

Great location walkable to ALL French Quarter attractions.
Wow. How to describe all there is in the French Quarter? Since our whole city is an AMERICAN gumbo pot of cultures, brought together with a mutual love of community, ethnic diversity, tradition, music, food, so much it's impossible to tell you ALL!
Music clubs, shopping, feast of the senses (things to taste, touch, drink, hear, and see), museums, historical exhibits, frequent festivals.
We offer a personal walking tour to Bourbon St. on arrival, as well as knowledgeable hosts (the banana lady and Mr. Mary) who can tell you where to go, what's going on, and how to enjoy N'Awlins to its fullest.
Stay with us where you don't need to take a streetcar, taxi, or bus, unless you want to go to OTHER historic neighborhoods.

The French Quarter is Party-Central in New Orleans and the HH Whitney House is conveniently located just a half mile outside of the district.
Easy enough to get back and forth - several times a day, if you'd like - but far enough away that you won't be disturbed by all the noise when you're tired and weary - and possibly hungover - and just want to sleep.
Get there by bus, taxi or on foot!
